A LOOK AT HOW 10 OF THE RANGERS' BEST PROSPECTS FARED THIS WEEK -- Despite the fact that the Rangers have dipped into their deep farm system for major league help and trade bait over the last few years, they still have one of the best crops of prospects in the game. Here's a look at how 10 of the Texas Rangers' top prospects have fared this week (May 19-25).

At 19-years-old, shortstop Jurickson Profar is the Rangers’
top prospect and maybe the top prospect in baseball.

However, his position is already filled on the big league
club by Elvis Andrus, who is 23-years-old.

So, someone will have to make a move when Profar is ready to
make the jump from Double-A Frisco.

"I don't mind switching positions, I just want to play
baseball," Profar told MiLB.com in February. "As long as I'm in the
lineup, I can play wherever."

But ESPN.com’s Keith Law suggests that Andrus will be the
one moving. In a Thursday article, Law ranked Profar as the second-best
prospect in all of baseball, moving him up five spots from earlier in the year.

“It's hard to rank a guy much lower than this when he has
front-line tools and has failed to reach base in just two games this year, the
last one on April 7,” Law wrote. “His combination of OBP, speed and defense
will push Elvis Andrus out of the way -- talk of moving Profar to accommodate
Andrus underestimates just how good Profar is going to be.”

Through 43 games, the 5-11 switch-hitter is batting .293
with fiver homers and 21 RBIs in 174 at bats for the RoughRiders.
